First injury report for Chiefs vs. Eagles, Super Bowl LVII bye week
The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles have released their first injury reports ahead of Super Bowl LVII. It’s the bye week and both teams did not practice on Wednesday, so the injury reports released by the teams are solely in estimation. That means the players listed would have had the respective practice status had the teams actually held a practice.
Check out the initial injury report for each team down below:

This is about as full as the injury report has been for the Chiefs all season long. They still have plenty of time to get players feeling better and back ahead of Super Bowl LVII.
If you’re looking for good news, both Travis Kelce (back), Jody Fortson (elbow) and Nick Bolton (ankle) are no longer on the injury report for Kansas City.
Reminder, the Chiefs do not have to report the practice status of RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire until he is activated to the 53-man roster from injured reserve.
